Mini Replay v1.1 is out. It features 8 Apple II games on a single floppy disk, complete with game help, loading progress bars, and selectable "infinite lives" hacks. All games are fully playable with only a keyboard.
Mini Replay runs on any 48K Apple II. 64K machines also get a bonus screensaver mode that cycles through self-running demos of each game.

There's a new PDP11 extension card for Apple II computers based on the J-11 and a Tang Nano FPGA board. Whow.

Due to illness, I was unable to present at INIT HELLO 2026. In this thread I will post my slides and what I was planning to say about them.

Hi folks! Happy to announce it's now simpler than ever to connect a Quicktake to an Apple II. I've worked on a better solution than the Frankencable, and came up with an adapter box. It even allows keeping the printer connected, for easy printing of pictures 🙂 https://www.colino.net/wordpress/shop/apple-ii-hardware/apple-ii-quicktake-connector-box/
